MIB View

You can restrict the NMS's rights to manage the device.

Context

A MIB view is a collection of all managed objects. The NMS manages devices by reading information from and writing information to the managed objects in the MIB. A MIB view defines the management information included in or excluded from the MIB view. Two implementation methods are available for the MIB view:

When the NMS manages most MIB objects on the managed device or some objects in the MIB view do not need to be managed by the NMS, the unmanaged objectives can be configured.
When the NMS manages a few MIB objects on the managed device or some objects in the MIB view are managed by the NMS with access restrictions, the objectives can be configured.
